I don't own any of this Paranorman belongs to Laika and Five Nights at Freddy's belongs to Scott Cawthon
"You think Alvin's here?" Salma question as they stood in the parking lot of Freddy's, Neil stood in front of the doors quite confidentiality, he nods at them. "Yes I do."
"And why do you think that?"
"Because Salma I remembered something that Alvin said, and I saw something on the prize counter that maybe connected. Come on I'll show you!" Neil leads them inside and walked over to the prize counter, where he showed them the police siren, "A police siren?" Norman questioned, Neil nodded enthusiastically.
"And why is a prize police siren toy connected with Alvin's disappearance?" Salma asked with a bit of a doubt. "Because," Neil began with a triumph smile, "I overheard him one day, that if he could have anything in his room it would be a police siren. And this police siren wasn't here the first time we were here."
"That's a observation, I guess." Salma simply replied.
"So if he's here, then where could he be?" Norman asked.
"I don't know," Neil answered truthfully, "But he must be here somewhere."
"So I taken you want us to search the whole building?" Salma simply asked, Neil thought about it for a second before nodding. "Alright, I suggest we split up in order to do a wider search of the building." Norman turned to Salma unsure, "Are you sure that's a good idea. Every horror movie I seen shows that splitting up a bad idea."
"Norman this isn't one of your horror movies. Nothing bad is going to happen." Salma stated, "Anyway I'll check the hallways near the office, Neil you check over there near Pirate Cove, Norman you check over there by the arcade."
"Alright." Neil exclaimed happily, Norman however looked unsure.
Salma and Neil went off in different directions, Norman however stayed where he was as for him splitting up is a bad idea in his knowledge of horror movies, and this place is horror material thanks to the visions he keeps having. Norman glances over to the stage, the animatronics stood there all stationary, their eyes looked forward at him as if watching him.
Feeling a little intimidated Norman quickly walked to the arcade, he checked all around the room for anything that would be related to Alvin's disappearance. He looked in between arcade cabinets, looked under a air hockey table, then finally near the zombie game where he found a Faz-token on the bottom of the screen which was strange as it wasn't here last time.
Shrugging it off Norman left the arcade and went to the restroom area. He went into the boys bathroom where it smelled weird, the sinks were rusty, the mirror is dirty, and he's pretty sure that there is mold on the ceiling. After letting out a grunt of disgust Norman searched the bathroom, checking the stall he found that the toilets were rusty with dirty water, a rat bursted out from behind the toilet and ran passed in between Norman's legs.
Salma walked down the west hallway, she opened the door which turned out to be nothing but a supply closet so she shuts it and walked into the office. "No sign of Alvin." She took a glance to the tablet on the chair, "How unfortunate that there's no power, the cameras would've been useful." Salma now looked over to the file cabinets, despite the fact she was supposed to look for any signs of Alvin, she instead went over to the cabinet where she opened the middle cabinet.
Inside the cabinet she is surprised to see a picture of Freddy with a malicious smile, it was creepy looking but Salma reassured herself that it was just a photograph. She notices a note underneath the photograph, she takes out the note where she proceeds to read it.
Hello brand new night guard, if you're reading this then you just settle in your office.
Your job is quite simple really, keep an eye on the cameras, (though not to much as they consume power) to make sure that no one breaks in. On your left and right are your lights and doors, use the lights to find someone or something in your camera blindspots, and close the door to prevent anything getting in.
During your shift you may noticed that our animatronics roam the building, but don't be alarm as they are simply in their free roaming mode. You just need to not get close to them, as they can get very aggressive and try to shove you into a animatronic suit. They do this because they think your an endoskeleton without it's costume on. Now as you can imagine these suits are filled with animatronic devices, which will result in death with the only thing of you to see the light and day again, would be your eyeballs and teeth that will pop out of the mask.
But hey if you just avoid them, you should be fine, so anyway if you follow these instructions this job will just be a breeze.
From upper management.
Salma finished the note not sure what to make of what it said, surely it must be a joke by upper management as there was no logical reason for the animatronics to walk around at night and kill people by stuffing them in a animatronic suit. Then again there was that night with the witches curse, no that was one thing, this was different. Right?
Neil had looked around the area near Pirate Cove, he even looked inside where he jumped as a hook is close to his face. After that fright he looked passed Foxy but didn't see anything useful. With this area checked out, Neil turned around and looked at the double doors leading into the kitchen.
"Hmmm, I wonder if there's anything useful in there?" With that Neil wandered over to the kitchen doors, up on the stage Chica's eyes watched him.
Opening the doors Neil is met with complete darkness, "This could be a problem." Neil took his phone out and used its flashlight. He walked in with the phone in front of him, the light showed countertops with cutting boards with knifes on them, a rack of hanging pots and pans, a sink full of dirty trays, a rack of trays, a visible back freezer full of leftover pizzas and other foods.
"This is cool." Neil exclaimed.
Neil walked to the end of the kitchen shinning his flashlight everywhere, he shines it on the run down wall that had bugs crawling on it making him cringe a bit. He then shined it to a slightly open cabinet, he crouched down and opened it revealing spices and other condiments. Neil reached in and looked at each of them. "Cheese, sugar, mustard, ketchup, oh garlic."
Neil's ears then picked up the doors of the kitchen squeaking open. Neil turned to the darkness in alarm, "Norman? Salma? Is that you?" Neil received no answer, Neil looked at the darkness, straining to see anything but didn't, so he only shrugged it off before getting up; where he then picked up a horrible smell.
Shinning his light on the counter, Neil cringed away from the most horrible pizza he had ever seen, it was so bad that he almost threw up on the spot. "That's nasty." Neil mumbled to himself. Just then the sounds of crashing pots and pans caused him to jump, "What was that!?" Neil quickly shinned his flashlight in that direction and nearly dropped his phone in fright, as the light revealed Chica standing there with her arms down and a blank expression.
Neil could feel his heart beat fast as he looked at the robot chicken, eventually his heart beat went back to normal speed. He looked at Chica confused on how she got here? "What are you doing here Chica? Did you come to get some lunch?"
Neil walked up to her, he looked up with a small smile as he tried to think of something positive over this strange predicament. "I wouldn't recommend that pizza though." Neil let out a little laugh, Chica's eyes looked down at him, from inside the sound of machinery could be heard as her arms slowly rose up.
Neil immediately stopped laughing as alarm went through him. "Your moving?"
In a quick movement Chica leaned down and grabbed Neil by the throat, Neil struggled for air as she lifted him off his feet while making a horrible groaning noise. Neil's arms frail around, he could feel himself becoming lightheaded as Chica tighten her grip. He was about to pass out until his hand gripped a tray, using his remaining strength Neil lifted the tray and smacked it against Chica's face.
Chica released his neck, Neil dropped to the floor coughing for air, he looked up at Chica terrified, Chica looked down at him with her head twitching in a unnatural way. She lunges at him again while making a terrible screech; Neil got on his knees and crawled a few feet before getting up on his feet, and ran as fast as he can.
Neil ran to the end of the counter, he turned and ran down the other side heading for the door, behind him he could hear Chica's metallic footsteps. Neil bursted through the doors, he runs to the restroom area where he bumped into Norman who just came out of the boys bathroom. Norman looked at his friend in concern as he looked absolutely terrified, the most terrified he ever seen him.
"Neil are you okay?"
Salma hearing the commotion came into the area concern. "What's going on?" She then notices the red marks around his neck. "My goodness what happen to you Neil!? Are you alright?!" She kneeled down next to him along with Norman. Neil struggled to talk as his throat hurt very much, he lets out a couple coughs until he finally spoke in a raspy voice. "Chica strangled me."
The two eyes widen in surprise. "Chica?" Norman asked.
"The animatronic?" Salma added.
Neil lets out another cough. "Yes, she came into the kitchen and nearly strangled me to death. I just saved myself by hitting her in the face with a tray." Neil goes into another coughing fit, Norman and Salma looked at each other unsure of the situation. "You sure that Chica attacked you?"
"Oh yes Norman."
The description of the note immediately flashes through Salma's eyes.
"No, that can't be possible. Animatronics can't walk on their own." Norman looked at Salma, he then caught sight of something behind her that terrified him, "Um, Salma."
"Animatronics can't have a mind of their own, they're just simple machines built to entertain kids."
"Salma."
"They shouldn't be strong enough to strangle someone."
"SALMA!"
Salma look to Norman, Norman redirected his gaze behind her, Salma turned around to see Chica standing in the archway with her head tilted and mouth open which showed her endoskeleton teeth. The three screamed in terror, then took off to the boys bathroom, they ran into the fourth stall where Norman firmly locked it. The four huddle on top of the toilet breathing heavily, daring not to say anything as they wonder what was going on.
"What's going on? Why is she trying to kill us?" Neil whispered.
"They have a free roaming mode." Salma said.
"What?"
"I read on the note in the office, that the robots have this free roaming mode and they think we're endoskeletons, if they catch us they'll shove us into a suit."
"That doesn't sound so bad." Neil exclaimed in a whisper.
"The suits are filled with animatronic devices, and judging by our sizes we will get pretty crushed in them."
Neil's face went white, "That's horrifying." The sound of metallic footsteps filled the room, causing the three to go stiff. The footsteps stopped making a uneasy silence; Neil goes to say something but Salma covered his mouth while giving him a 'shh' motion. It remained silent in the restroom, the only sound that came were their heartbeats.
They had no idea where she was, and they certainly weren't going to check as none didn't want to risk to be seen, the only way they could see the other side is the small crack of the stall door. Norman glances down to the ground, his terrified eyes switch to question as on the floor, under the boarder between their stall and the other stall is the cupcake looking up at them. He is about to question how it got there when Neil let out a scream, looking up he to almost let out a scream as a magenta colored eye looked back at them from the crack of the stall door.
The eye dipped away sideways which was shortly followed by a loud bang, the stall door shook, another bang came from behind the door as it shook, more bangs hit the door making it shake violently. One of the bolts on the top end of the stall fell loose, with another bang another bolt fell out; the top of the stall bent forward, another bang and the door bent more.
The three got off the toilet, then one by one got on their belly's to crawl under to the next stall, Neil is the last one, he jumped on the next bang he looked back; the door is bended to the point where Chica's face could be seen looking down on him. Neil lets out a terrified whimper then quickly crawled to the other stall just as the door crash down, at the other stall Neil got back up and immediately he along with his friends raced out of the stall, and the restroom.
The three race into the dinning area, "Come on this way!" Norman shouted. They came to the front desk but stopped as there in front of them, blocking the front doors is Bonnie. The three screamed, they quickly turned back into the dinning area, by now Chica stood in the archway of the restrooms. They turned right running straight into the party room, Neil slammed the door shut while Norman and Salma used a chair to lock it.
The three backed away in fear waiting to see if anything is going to happen. None of them could believe that this is happening to them right now, this by far is the most horrifying thing that they've experience, and they all had one question in their minds. How were they going to get out of here alive?
